TWWMABMTBH Chapter 62
by Volare【Collapse Value 2999】
The deputy director was completely dumbfounded. Although he knew that the peacocks were mostly washed by pouring the liquid, Rong Ziyan’s deliberate emphasis on the buttocks still gave him a subtle sense of collapse.
Adding fuel to the fire, Rong Ziyan said, “This was contributed by my senior brother with tears. I don’t have any more. My senior brother washed with it yesterday, and he grew hair this morning.”
Deputy Director: !!!
Damn it! Rong Ziyan’s senior brother had been balding for several years, and now it had such an immediate effect. Wouldn’t that mean that this shampoo was miraculously effective?
After speaking, Rong Ziyan left with his folder.
The deputy director stood awkwardly holding the shampoo, took a deep breath, and decided to take it back to his own dorm.
It was just washing a peacock, he would pour it out when he washed, and pretend that the previous incident never happened.
Thinking this way, the deputy director successfully calmed his collapsing heart.
But he never expected that gossip was a scary thing, and there were no airtight walls in the research institute.
After he and Rong Ziyan talked in the corridor, rumors spread everywhere in the institute.
It started with “Did you hear? The deputy director is going to say goodbye to his baldness. He took away the special medicine for treating bald peacocks.”, then gradually changed to “The deputy director is so eager to grow hair that he even snatched the medicine for treating the peacocks.”, and then it was spread to “The deputy director has gone crazy, he’s actually using the liquid for washing the peacocks’ butts to wash his hair.”
At this time, the deputy director had not heard the discussions about him. Instead, he was surprised that Boss Fat came to find him with wine and food as soon as he got off work, followed by a group of disciples who came to freeload with their master.
Naturally, Rong Ziyan was also among them. Of course, Rong Ziyan originally didn’t want to come, but the reason everyone gave for freeloading was him.
“You weren’t here yesterday when Little Rong came, so we just ate at the cafeteria. Let’s have a get-together today, don’t refuse, mother of the child.” Boss Fat said, pushing Rong Ziyan, hinting that he would start crying if the deputy director disagreed.
The deputy director couldn’t do anything with his old buddy. He was familiar with Rong Ziyan and his fellow disciples. He would often work with Rong Ziyan in the future, so it wouldn’t hurt to get to know them better.
As the “mother of the child” jokingly called by Boss Fat, the deputy director was indeed much more reliable than him. Not only did he quickly order takeout and prepare a table of suitable and delicious dishes, but he also set the table while waiting for the food, allowing everyone to sit down.
The meal was enjoyed by everyone. After dinner, Boss Fat stayed put, claiming that he had to have a heart-to-heart talk with his brother that night.
Rong Ziyan was also held down by his senior brothers, who wouldn’t let him leave no matter what. They stayed at the deputy director’s place to freeload his wifi.
System: Why do I feel like they have some kind of conspiracy?
Rong Ziyan: It’s not that serious. I found out that the deputy director’s internet is a little faster than mine.
Rong Ziyan’s answer was so definite, but the system felt even more uneasy.
Especially since this group of people stayed until after 12 o’clock before being chased away by the deputy director, the system felt even more that there must be some hidden motive.
Sure enough, the next morning, before Rong Ziyan even got out of bed, the system received a notification: [10,000 Anger Value from Deputy Director]
Damn, he’s that angry! The system quickly woke Rong Ziyan up.
After reading the notification, Rong Ziyan first sent a message to his senior brother, “What happened to the deputy director this morning? He seems very angry?”
The senior brother quickly called back. When Rong Ziyan answered, his voice was slightly panting, as if he had done something bad and was running away?
“Rong! Come to the deputy director’s dorm quickly, Master is calling for rescue.” The senior brother’s tone was urgent, “Master said, bring your best talent!”
Rong Ziyan didn’t quite understand, but he still quickly washed up and went to the deputy director’s dorm.
Like Rong Ziyan’s dorm, the deputy director’s dorm was also on the first floor and had a yard.
The only difference was that there was a very stout pomegranate tree in the deputy director’s yard.
At this moment, Boss Fat was lying on the tree with all his limbs, refusing to come down.
Rong Ziyan’s senior brothers were all standing in front of the tree trying to persuade him, while the deputy director behind them was holding a broom in anger.
“You grandson! If you have the guts, stay up there all day!” The deputy director was furious.
Boss Fat, relying on his disciples being around, acted arrogantly, “Hehe, I’m not afraid, there are people to catch me if I fall.”
“!!!” The deputy director was even more furious, turning his head and seeing Rong Ziyan coming in from outside, “Aren’t you going to do something! What kind of state is this!”
Rong Ziyan, who was dragged into the war for no reason, thought for a moment and said sincerely, “A son should not speak of his teacher’s faults.”
The deputy director reacted for three seconds. Rong Ziyan meant that as a student, he couldn’t speak of the teacher’s mistakes. To put it bluntly, he couldn’t do anything about it.
He was instantly so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
Rong Ziyan took the opportunity to ask his senior brother, “Why did they start fighting?”
The senior brother was disappointed, “It’s because Master ran too slow.”
It turned out that the reason why Boss Fat and Rong Ziyan’s senior brothers stayed yesterday was to see if the deputy director would wash his hair with the liquid that washed the peacocks’ butts.
Later it got too late, and they didn’t see the deputy director wash his hair, so these disciples left first. Only Boss Fat stayed openly.
“Then this morning, in order to confirm whether the deputy director used the shampoo, Master peeked at the deputy director taking a shower. And then…”
“And then?” Rong Ziyan raised his voice slightly.
The senior brother lowered his voice awkwardly, “And then he recorded a video. And after being discovered, the two started fighting.”
System: …
Rong Ziyan: …
The other senior brothers were obviously also disgusted, but they could only support their own father no matter how unreasonable he was.
The deputy director was furious at the way they were all ganging up together.
Rong Ziyan, however, walked to his side and patted his shoulder.
Deputy Director: What is it?
Rong Ziyan silently broke open a sugar bun he had just bought from the cafeteria and handed him half.
The sweet, runny brown sugar filling and the soft outer layer made the sweet aroma waft from afar.
Boss Fat in the tree instantly had his eyes lit up, looking at Rong Ziyan with great anticipation.
Rong Ziyan, however, waved to his fellow senior brothers, “Are you going to have breakfast? I brought salted duck eggs.”
“Yes!” The senior brothers, who were already very hungry after all the morning’s fuss, were instantly lured away by Rong Ziyan’s salted duck eggs.
They had long heard that Rong Ziyan’s salted duck eggs tasted very special and were a popular must-have for late-night snacks back at the agricultural university.
So, Rong Ziyan left with a crowd of followers, and before leaving, he handed the other half of the sugar bun to the deputy director, adding, “Go easy on him, we still have experiments to do in the morning!”
The deputy director took the sugar bun, while smiling kindly, and patted Rong Ziyan on the shoulder, “Don’t worry, child, mommy knows what to do.”
Just as Rong Ziyan and the others closed the door to the deputy director’s room, a scream came from inside from Boss Fat.
Faintly, you could also hear pleas of “Mother of the child, I was really wrong, give me a bite of the sugar bun, I can kneel on the washboard until tomorrow morning.”
He had brought it upon himself. Rong Ziyan had no intention of sympathizing with him.
So by that night, there was another version of the rumor about the hair-growth shampoo.
The two leaders, Boss Fat and the deputy director, had started a domestic violence mode that lasted all morning in order to fight over the remaining half bottle of the liquid for washing peacock butts. The deputy director had even grown hair because he was too excited.
However, these were just funny anecdotes in the midst of the dry research. When a large amount of work piled up, even these little bits of after-dinner amusement became very rare.
Because Rong Ziyan didn’t help him and even rubbed salt into his wound in the morning, Boss Fat couldn’t help but “make things difficult” for Rong Ziyan after being beaten.
One moment, he would throw a bunch of documents at him, asking him to organize them. The next moment, he would drag Rong Ziyan to the lab to help monitor important experiments.
The entire day, Rong Ziyan didn’t even have the chance to sit down and have a drink of water.
Boss Fat: Hmph, if you don’t come over and apologize to your teacher, I’ll make things even harder for you tomorrow.
But by evening, not only did he not receive Rong Ziyan’s sincere repentance, but he was also cornered in the hallway by Rong Ziyan, who asked him a lot of questions about what he had seen and heard during the day.
His mouth was dry, he was starving, and in the end, he could only sullenly pass his little disciple to his big disciple and run to the cafeteria to seek a loving dinner from the cafeteria uncle.
However… what he got was still a plate of greens.
Boss Fat lay on the table, weakly picking at the vegetables on his plate, feeling that life was meaningless and beginning to doubt his existence.
Rong Ziyan, on the other hand, after resolving his doubts, turned around and went back to the lab.
There were only a few researchers on duty in the lab at night. They all greeted Rong Ziyan politely when they saw him come back.
Boss Fat had previously told everyone that any experiment in any lab at the institute, as long as Rong Ziyan wanted to see it, he could see it freely. There was no need to hide anything.
Therefore, these researchers were also very friendly to Rong Ziyan.
However, Rong Ziyan’s actions after entering didn’t seem like he was simply watching the experiments. Instead, he seemed very concerned about the ducks that were used as experimental subjects.
The key point was that Rong Ziyan’s method of treating the ducks didn’t seem like he was observing them. Instead, it was like a veterinarian from an animal husbandry station examining poultry.
“What are you doing?” Someone asked Rong Ziyan out of curiosity.
Rong Ziyan thought for a moment before carefully answering, “I think these ducks might be sick.”
The researchers were all stunned. These ducks had just been delivered in the morning to test the nutritional content of feed. They had been checked when they came in and were confirmed to be healthy. How could Rong Ziyan suddenly say they were sick?
This experiment was quite important, and Boss Fat was quickly alerted and ran over.
Rong Ziyan’s senior brother, like him, was a veterinarian. After checking with Boss Fat, he also showed a solemn expression.
Rong Ziyan was right, these ducks might be sick.
There were inconspicuous hard lumps at the tails. At first glance, they seemed very energetic and had a healthy appetite, but it was hard to say what would happen in two days.
“It’s a good thing you’re observant.” He had people quickly remove the ducks and find a separate place to observe them. Boss Fat patted Rong Ziyan on the shoulder, breaking out in a cold sweat.
Luckily, the test had just started, and they had stopped the losses in time. If they had only discovered that the ducks were sick in the later stages, the entire test would have been in vain, and they would have to start all over again.
This move by Rong Ziyan saved the research institute from a lot of losses and successfully gained the approval of all the researchers.
Boss Fat, seeing that Rong Ziyan was doing well, planned to directly establish a research project of his own for Rong Ziyan.
One day, the two were discussing this matter when the deputy director knocked on the door and came in.
“What’s the matter?”
“Someone from the Beijing Wildlife Park is here.”
“Are they picking up the peacocks?”
“No, it’s more than that. They also sent over a golden turtle. It’s the same one that had the ancient tomb discovered on its shell.”
Boss Fat immediately became energetic, “Isn’t that old turtle their prized possession? Why did they suddenly send it to us?”
“It’s because of mating season. They wanted the golden turtle to have offspring, but none were successfully mated. So they sent it here for an examination to see if it was sick.”
“Impotence?” Boss Fat immediately got excited, pulling Rong Ziyan towards the door.
On the way, the system suddenly remembered something and asked Rong Ziyan, “Host, that golden turtle wouldn’t be the one we sent over before, right!”
Rong Ziyan recalled the deputy director’s description: It should be the one.
Sure enough, when they arrived in the backyard where various animals were kept, Rong Ziyan finally saw the golden turtle being surrounded by a group of geese.
The old guy didn’t seem to be in a very good mood, but his keeper hadn’t noticed, and he was enthusiastically introducing them, “You can touch its shell. If you’re sincere, you’ll get good luck.”
As soon as he said this, the crowd of onlookers, looking like tigers eyeing their prey, all rushed up sincerely, muttering, “Bless me not to lose any more hair” “Bless me not to lose any more hair.”
Keeper: …
Golden Turtle: …
However, this was not the thing that made the golden turtle even more desperate. Three seconds later, he noticed his nemesis, Rong Ziyan, not far away. The deputy director next to him kept expressing his commitment to the leader of the Beijing Wildlife Park, saying that they would do their best.
“The medicine that strengthened endangered species was discovered by our Little Rong. Don’t worry! He can definitely help the golden turtle leave offspring.”
Rong Ziyan also nodded solemnly and comforted the golden turtle in his heart, “Don’t worry! You brought me wealth before, I will do my best to cure your impotence.”
